Don’t know how it all unraveled
caught me unaware
girl well-travelled
brought me to despair
Ignorance and pride
whispers getting louder
just along for the ride
world’s getting crowded
I believed the things she told me
all in to be sure
nothing as it appeared to be
just didn’t understand the score
wasn’t in on the joke
out went the fire
still smelled the smoke
waning desire
when forever is not forever
forever no more
toughest thing to discover
died with a whimper not a roar
I believed the things she told me
all in to be sure
nothing as it appeared to be
just didn’t understand the score
heart’s still beating
down an unknown street
I’ll keep breathing
Never know who you might meet
can’t say it doesn’t sting
when you’ve played the fool
gonna see what tomorrow brings
now that I’ve been schooled
I believed the things she told me
all in to be sure
nothing as it appeared to be
just didn’t understand the score
